Joey Bart is a 2015 C/1B with a 6-2 210 lb. frame from Buford, GA who attends Buford HS. Large extra strong build, physically mature. Right handed hitter, Tall stance, high hand start, long stride and fall into contact, swings down to the ball with loose and long finish, creates very good bat speed and ball jumps when squared, length and big shift create timing issues, big power potential if it all comes together. Very good raw arm strength behind the plate, long whippy arm action, strong hands receiving the ball, can frame it, will have to continue to work hard on lower half quickness and footwork. Has never pitched in close to 20 PG events but it would be interesting to see his arm strength/arm action on the mound. Good student, verbal commitment to Georgia Tech.

Joey Bart is a 2015 C/1B/3B with a 6-2 210 lb. frame from Buford, GA who attends Buford HS. Extremely strong physical build, very mature physically for his age. Right handed hitter, power approach but keeps swing mechanics simple, balanced lower half, upper half swing, short hand path to the ball, hard pull contact, ball really jumps off the barrel hard, has some late lift out front, stays balanced well, swings hard and is aggressive, can improve contact on inner half. 7.44 runner, light on his feet for his size, tends to stand up to throw, upright release, quick exchange and compact arm action with arm strength, tools to improve with refined mechanics. Ball comes off his bat differently than most sophomores. Does not need to get bigger or much stronger. Good student. Named to the Top Prospect Team.
